Oscillococcinum by Boiron. You can purchase this at Wal-Mart or Walgreens. It is for helping to prevent the flu or to recover more quickly from it. It absolutely works! I have used it and so have my kids & hubby.
Here is a link you can read about it and see what the package looks like. http://www.oscillo.com/

Echinacea
get rest - plenty of fluids - vitamin C
stay away when she is sneezing/coughing
wash hands soap and water before touching your nose/eyes
have heard the eyes are the pathway of the flu - so if
they start burning (OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOO)
Merrry Christmas and Happy Snow Boarding!

Stay out of her way and wash your hands frequently and dont share any eating utensils with her. Also, put bleach in the dish water to steralize bowls, spoons, etc. Keep disinfectant spray handy to spray in the air to clean it.

There's something at the drug store called ColdFX which boosts your immune system. My doctor says it really works, although I haven't tried it yet. I found some information on it here

Most important thing you can do is wash your hands a lot, and don't touch around your face or mouth.

Don’t stay too close to her for a few days.
